- Compared with other fuels, propane is much less combustible. When combined with air, the source of ignition must be at least 940°—that’s twice as hot as what is required to ignite gasoline.
- Autogas, a propane-based motor fuel, is the third most popular vehicle fuel, next to gasoline and diesel. Because it’s so safe and cost-effective, Autogas is now being used for buses, fleet trucks, forklifts, farm tractors and lawn mowers. Many manufacturers now make bi-fuel (or dual-fuel) models that run equally well on either Autogas or gasoline. There are now thousands of AutoGas fueling stations across the country.
- High efficiency heat pumps can be driven by a propane-fueled engine. This system is designed to efficiently heat and cool multiple zones in a home.
- Because propane is nontoxic and doesn’t pose a threat to soil and water, installing propane tanks (above or below ground), is not regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency.
- Propane is an essential fuel for nearly 900,000 farms in the U.S. It’s used for irrigation pumps, crop drying, fruit ripening, space and water heating, generators and refrigeration.
